Development of the Heart Flashcards
……… gives rise to almost all heart components
splanchnopleure
angiogenesis refers to ………
Development of blood and blood vessels
By day ………., the lateral mesoderm has somatopleure and splanchnopleure
18
When does the vascular system appear?
By the middle of the third week
Describe the formation of the primary heart field
Progenitor heart cells lie in the epiblast, immediately adjacent to the cranial end of the primitive streak. From there, they migrate through the streak and into the splanchnic layer of lateral plate mesoderm where they form a horseshoe-shaped cluster of cells called the primary heart field (PHF) cranial to the neural folds
the progenitor heart cells migrate and form the PHF during days …….
days 14 to 16
Outlist the parts of the heart derived from the PHF
- the atria
- left ventricle
- most of the right ventricle
Mention the remaining parts of the heart derived from the secondary heart fold
part of the right ventricle
outflow tract (conus cordis and truncus arteriosus)
………….. form part of the aorta and pulmonary artery
conus cordis and truncus arteriosus
The SHF is regulated by …………. that control concentrations of FGFs
neural crest cells
the cardiac tube begins to bend on day ………
23
The bending of the cardiac tube creates the …………..
cardiac loop.
The bulbus cordis is narrow except for its………..
proximal third
…………… will form the trabeculated part of the right ventricle
Bulbus cordis
………….. will form the outflow tracts of both ventricles.
conus cordis
The distal part of the bulbus, the truncus arteriosus will form ……………..
the roots and proximal portion of the aorta and pulmonary artery
The junction between the ventricle and the bulbus cordis, externally indicated by the …………..
bulboventricular sulcus
………… is called the primary interventricular foramen
bulboventricular sulcus
……………. begins to form primitive trabeculae at the end of loop formation
the smoothwalled heart tube
the smooth-walled heart tube begins to form primitive trabeculae in two sharply defined areas, namely
proximal and distal to the primary interventricular foramen
the trabeculated proximal third of the bulbus cordis is called the …………….
primitive right ventricle
What is dextrocardia?
A condition where the heart lies on the right side of the thorax instead of the left.
